Karen prepares for her meeting with Ridge. Blake thinks that she would wear something sexier, but Karen disagrees and feels Blake has something at stake in all of this. Karen arrives at the Private Dining room and Ridge cannot help but think of Caroline when he looks at her. Meanwhile, Stephanie admits to Felicia that she is opposed to the wedding because she believes that Ridge is still in love with Brooke. However, she admits that there is certain bias and therefore will host the engagement party for the sake of the family. Taylor arrives at the Forrester Mansion to help with party planning and Felicia exits the living room. Taylor and Stephanie realize that they have been set up by Felicia to get know each other better. Taylor decides to use this opportunity to come to terms with Stephanie about Ridge. Stephanie is very blunt in retorting that she is not interested in bonding with her potential daughter-in-law.
